I have a question, digital world. One that I'm quiet interested in hearing what you all believe the answer is. The subject you ask?

Empires.

What is it that makes an Empire and what separates the poor from the great? What are the components to a truly great Empire?

Furthermore, what is it that allows an Empire to stand the test of time? What could be done to erect an empire that would stand for thousands of years, if not an eternity?

I await your answers.

Quite interesting so far. Seems this world has it's fair share of rulers.

I guess this world is a bit of an equalizer then since none of them are ruling anymore.

[cyclonia_rising]

True, but this doesn't mean they may not be trying to reclaim their status as ruler here.

But with how powerful the area leaders are...and then there's the demon kings...

As far as I can tell only that Bowser guy has made any progress like that.

[cyclonia_rising]

Exactly. Such attempts seem doomed to fail. The question is; how did this Bowser obtain territory at all?

[loudestlady]

...luck? I dunno.

The only way to truly find out would be to ask him directly.
